On today's Backchat, where do the protests stand now? There has been little or no
violence for a while now, though large scale demonstrations are still planned. Has the
movement run out of team, and if so, why? What will happen at CNY, and will the IPCC

Liaison Office significant? How will policing change? Does the discontent linger, or has it
dissipated? How will the new District Councils operate?
